Supreme Court Decision Makes Scapegoating Banks Both Easier and Harder
A 5-3 decision by the US Supreme Court some good news and bad news to municipalities who want to sue banks for the resulting blight from "reverse redlining." The good news: municipalities can sue. The bad news: winning won't be a walk in the park. But sometimes just the bringing a case against a lender is effective enough for politicians seeking a scapegoat. [5/16/17]
